When Jennifer Aniston decided to join Instagram on Tuesday, October 15, she didn’t just create an account—she ignited a social media phenomenon. By Thursday, October 17, she was already having a blast, sharing a nostalgic throwback photo of herself as a little girl paired with a stunning current-day selfie. Spoiler alert: Jennifer still looks as incredible as ever.
She captioned the post with a simple yet heartfelt "#TBT In style, then and now." And let me tell you, her famous friends wasted no time chiming in with their compliments. Social media is all about connection, and Jen's post was no exception.
Throwback Thursday Done Right
Reese Witherspoon couldn’t resist gushing over Jen's adorable throwback photo, writing, “Cutie pie 💕.” Rita Wilson also chimed in, exclaiming, “Koukla!” Jen’s post quickly amassed over 5 million likes in under a day, but that's nothing compared to the overwhelming response to her first-ever Instagram post.

Her First Post: A Moment of Reunion
When Jen officially joined Instagram earlier that week, her very first post took everyone by storm. She shared a photo of her reuniting with her beloved Friends castmates over dinner. The caption read, “And now we’re Instagram FRIENDS too. HI INSTAGRAM 👋🏻.”
But Jen didn’t stop there. She quickly followed up with a lighthearted apology to her fans after her debut caused some technical hiccups on the app. “I swear I didn’t mean to break it,” she joked. “Thank you guys for the kind, glitchy welcome ❤️.”
How the 'Friends' Cast Convinced Jen to Join
It seems the idea to join Instagram came during a private reunion where Jen met up with Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, and Matt LeBlanc. Fifteen years after the show ended, they caught up and convinced her to create an account. “We just had dinner on Saturday. Yeah, the whole gang, everyone was there,” Jen recalled on The Howard Stern Show. “We laughed so hard.”
During their get-together, the group reminisced about their shared experiences on the show, including their groundbreaking decision to demand equal pay. “We stood as a solitary unit and asked for the exact same, equal pay,” Jen revealed. “We were leading the charge, ahead of our time.”
